Description

Superb clear colorless beryl (goshenite) crystals are scattered on a series of radiating sprays of shining black schorl. The overall effect is striking and the beryl crystals are  clear. Goshenite is surprisingly rare as almost all beryl has some color. The condition of this is good overall but a few schorl have tip damage. The beryl however is in good condition with glasslike luster. Classic and attractive Erongo material.
